Full details
The TOUGH MASTER TM-WPD500 Submersible Pump is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts needing to quickly remove water from flooded areas, pools, ponds, or for irrigation system setups. Its key benefit is the versatility to handle both clean and dirty water with solid passage up to 35mm, offering a powerful 500W oil-cooled motor that operates quietly underwater. A potential caveat is the need for manual operation if the auto float switch is not used or disabled, requiring user attention to prevent dry running if the water level drops too low.

What is the maximum depth this pump can operate at?
The pump can be submerged up to a depth of eight meters.
How do I select the correct hose outlet?
Choose the outlet size (1", 1-1/4", or 1-1/2") based on the required flow rate. Larger hoses generally allow for higher flow rates.
Can this pump handle muddy water?
Yes, the pump is designed to work with both clean and dirty water, with a maximum solid passage of 35mm.
Does the auto float switch require any setup?
The auto float switch is integrated. When placed on its slot, it enables automatic start/stop based on water level. If removed from the slot, the pump can be manually controlled via the power plug.
How long is the power cord?

What maintenance is required?
It's recommended to rinse the pump with clean water after use and periodically check the intake for debris. Store in a dry place when not in use.
Troubleshooting
Pump not turning on
Ensure the power cable is securely connected to a working outlet. Check the circuit breaker. Verify the float switch is not preventing operation (if set to auto and water is too low).
Reduced water flow or pump stops unexpectedly
Check the hose connection for kinks or blockages. Clean the intake screen for any debris. If using the auto float switch, ensure the water level is high enough to activate it. Check for motor overheating (allow to cool if thermal overload protection has engaged).
Pump runs but no water is being pumped
Ensure the pump is fully submerged and the intake is clear. Check for air leaks in the hose connection. Verify the hose is not blocked or too high for the pump's head height capabilities.
